for an HP inkjet printers...

this is the first itme i tried it...

first the printer says "error in black cartridge replace with a new one"

i just let it stand for a while then it prints again...

very cheap i say but one thing is...

its always better and safer to use the new and unrefilled one

i had ones from pelikan when I still had my old hp deskjet 500...as far as I remember it wasnt up to par with the regular (and expensive) hp cartridges.
nowadays printers are so cheap it's almost more profitable to get a new printer (with free cartridges) then just new cartridges (because those are so friggin' expensive).

so it is really better to use refills rather than a new one becaue it is cheaper, hey rei i also experienced that problem, but you could also fix that problem by using nozzle check over and over until it is fixed.

My dad buys these cheap 3 buck black inks for his Cannon 3in1. It doesn't even print 5 pages before it runs out. I've seen 3 blacks for 20 before, but there are not the official HP ones

HP ink is really expensive compared to Canon... so buying teh refill ink would save you a lot of cash... although the color performance would be not that similar to the original HP ink... what refill do you use rei??? Calidad???
